Well I pulled the main fuel line I think I was pulling the fuel line return. Anyhow. Pulled the main fuel line and I am getting fuel into the cup very clean fuel.

So could it be the fuel pressure regulator not holding pressure? I pulled the fuel pressure regulator vacuum liNE and I looked for any fuel to see if the internal function could be bad and looked for fuel however no fuel came out of the vacuum nipple.

The fuel injector o rings have been replaced in the last year and I don't smell any fuel at all.

 

Problem Solved: Quick Release Valve for the MAIN Fuel Line at the fuel Pump Assembly.



I also went in and removed this piece and put a straight pie of fuel line hose in its place. and clamped it down.




has has been start right up on the fist crank.....Very Happy as this problem was nothing short of drivng me NUTS!

 

i am bumping this old tread on hard to start to give some feed back,my problem was a leaky fuel regulator,i pull the vacuum hose and there it was fuel all over the place going in to the intake manifold so problem solve no more cranking it for ever

 

so you replaced the regulator, and problem solved?

 

Yes Pierce, i fix this problem just by replacing the regular,I read about it in another forum and already had a spare regulator so i pull the vacuum and wow fuel all over the place,replace it with the spare and keeps starting like a champ every single time since then.
